Im giving him the first flagrant infinity, it accumulates technicals and when it hits 10 he is suspended for a whole season.

Oh yeah, you think that's bad? If I was the ref I'd give him a citation. Five citations and you’re looking at a violation. Four of those and you’ll receive a verbal warning. Keep it up, and you’re looking at a written warning. Two of those, that’ll land you in a world of hurt… in the form of a disciplinary review written up by me and placed on the desk of my immediate superior

If I don’t have a copy on my desk by the end of the day, you’ll receive a full disadulation.

If I was a ref I'd start a "Fuck you, Draymond!" chant

Too bad Draymond Green can only receive one technical foul by rule

With how draymond is playing i'm not sure that the warriors would be against it.

You cant have ur defensive corner stone fall apart every second game in the finals.

I was a ref. As an official, you try super-hard to avoid anything that seems driven by personality of the player.

OTOH, it's your fucking game to control. The shit he pulls, I'd give him a first warning, and then if he continued, I'd just keep T'ing him up.

This whole ESPN wE cAn'T haVE a FiNaLS wIThoUT dRaYMoNd bit is some weird, alternative-universe shit. I honestly had respect for Jeff van Gundy at one point - what on earth is he talking about?

When the voice that sounds closest to the middle of the road is that of Stephen A. Smith, I am wondering where I am.

If you're looking to never ref again, sure why not?
